<br />2. Experience Over Previous 5 Years <br /> <br />A Continuing Tradition of Excellence <br /> <br />In the past 5 years, Spohn Ranch has continued the line of work it began in 1992 - building world-class <br />skateparks for both community users and professional skaters. In the past five years, we have built over 300 <br />skateparks - from micro-skate spots to national destinations like our recent Daytona Beach project. <br /> <br />During this time, we've continued to experiment and innovate in our 50,000 sq. ft. concrete and steel shop. <br />Our veteran shop workers (averaging 6 years with Spohn Ranch and 10 years in skatepark construction) have <br />pushed design and construction methodology forward through the use of pre-cast concrete, computer cut <br />templates for on-site concrete shaping and portable molds for casting pieces on-site. <br /> <br />On the design side, we've kept in constant contact with all levels of skating through our work at pro-level <br />skate competitions as well as constant feedback from skaters at our parks and at those managed by our <br />associate company, the Action Park Alliance. We've also conducted over 150 community design meetings <br />during the last 5 years where we take the pulse of skaters across the country. <br /> <br />Currently, our design team is incorporating real street plaza features and skateable art into our skateparks. <br />Seen as the leader in skateable art, Spohn Ranch has launched 'skateableart.com' to better educate cities <br />about the possibilities of creating visually stunning spaces that please both skaters and pedestrians. <br /> <br />Spohn Ranch's work has been recognized by awards from the Skatepark Association of the United States, the <br />NRPA, the ASLA and Concrete Disciples. However, we believe that the more important recognition comes <br />from the cities and agencies that have established Spohn Ranch as a 'sole source' provider of skatepark <br />design and build services, including the US Navy. These cities recognize that Spohn Ranch's unique <br />experience and breadth of capabilities offer cost savings and value enhancements that no other company or <br />team of companies can offer. <br /> <br />References for Selected Projects Over Previous 5 Years <br /> <br />Project Name Role Cost Schedule References <br /> <br />LA Skate Plaza; Los <br />Angeles, CA 2008 <br />10,000 sq. ft. <br /> <br />Prime Contractor, <br />Skatepark Designer, <br />Skatepark Builder <br /> <br />Estimate: <br />$273,451.94 <br />Final Cost: <br />$273,451.94 <br /> <br />Original Completion <br />Estimate: 9.26.08 <br />Final Completion <br />Date: 9.24.08 <br /> <br />Mark Mariscal <br />310.548.7643 <br />Mike Shull <br />213.928.9195 <br /> <br />2 <br /> <br />15131 Clark Ave. - Industry, CA 91745 - P 626-330-5803 x203 - f 626-330-5503 - Kirsten@spohnranch.com <br />
